How long is Vayne's tumble animation?@Joetjah I don't think its nonsense mate. The only 2 uses that you gave have nothing to do with fighting. The uses I gave for Tumble have everything to do with fighting and I thought that was the point here...Do you really think that if you're fighting with someone (let's say another ad carry 1v1) and you do your Piltover you won't "lose" in every possible aspect? The animation has a long delay, you have to stand still to do it, and the damage output will just not be worth it and it is also dodgeable. It's like saying you would actually ult someone from close range while you're fighting...

How long is Vayne's tumble animation?Very interesting question. I get that you ask a specific thing and you want the time of the animation (which I don't know yet) but I just like to point out that like Marco Leblanc said I don't think that practically there will ever be a point where your overall dps will render tumble useless. Because it has various useful applications besides the extra damage. 1) Gap Closing, 2) Spell Dodging (mid fight), 3) Disorientation of the Opponent (even more so when you have Ult on and become stealthed). A counter example is Caitlyn's Piltover Peacemaker which is almost useless after a certain point.

League of legends Tristana strategyI was about to answer the exact same thing! +1 For AP tristana it makes more sense to do that. Since you're an ap caster you can and should act more like an assasin. Plus Zonyas Hourglass gives you a free get out of jail card. For any AD carry to risk getting shut down in order to kill the other ad carry is most of the times the wrong strategy. It's not your job to do that unless you are more than 80% certain that you;ll get away somehow.

IP in League of Legends@Paralytic I didn't say they are fun and I didn't say it is worth doing this. Personally I think the best (and most honorable) way to get lots of IP is to try to Win dominion games. That's all. Losing them on purpose could result in you getting more ip in the longrun but its definitely not fun for anyone. Like I said you actually ruin your opponents game (but noone complains about free ip if you think about it.)

How to build Katarina?Thanks, we basically agree on the fact that Katarina should not be played squishy and should have sustain. I'm not playing Kat so often so I haven't gotten the chance to try her out THAT tanky. I'll do it soon though. +1 for a different building aspect.

How to build Katarina?Blindly playing any build is what one should avoid - it's not mobafire's or any websites fault. I wasn't aware of the fact that mobafire did what you said on purpose, simply because I haven't come across any high-rated troll build myself. But thx for the info! Those sites you mentioned are good. I just gave mobafire as an example since I didn't want to go into specifics about such websites.

Do Reports and Leaves in Coop vs AI Count?Of course you can see it. You can see the report button next to players even in custom games. But we all know custom games are not taken into consideration by Riot. So this doesn't really prove anything unfortunately. :(

Do Reports and Leaves in Coop vs AI Count?Is there an official statement where riot states that they punish offenders from Coop vs AI games? I mean I'm almost with you there, but for example when you dodge a normal queue game you get a 5 minute wait and then a 15 minute wait (if you do it a second time). In ranked you get a 5 minute wait and then a 30 minute wait. So there are differences between those 2 modes. I'm guessing there will be differences between normal games and coop games. It makes sense that there will be.

What is the basic dominion strategy?Vlad could be decent if played well. The only problem is that he has no hard disables which could make him more vulnerable against certain opponents. But yeah I can't say he's a bad choice either. Having no mana def. helps cause as a defender you'll want to be able to stay in one place for a long period. Plus late game vlad is an excellent pusher which means he can push off entire waves of incoming minions. This would make it harder for the opponents to capture.
